Hiring a general manager in Cheshunt? We look at the P&L they have run and the teams they have built before anything else.
A leader who can run a stable site is not always the one to fix a failing contract. We find out which one you need first.
Operations across the East of England are connected by the A14, M11, A1(M) and A12, the Port of Felixstowe and London Stansted Airport. Leaders who understand that network plan capacity with fewer surprises.
A general manager who leaves in the first year unsettles the team, the client and the numbers at the same time.

Contract logistics, retail distribution, parcel or manufacturing: we match leaders to the model they have run.
Every operations screen covers the candidate's approach to health and safety.
